They're doing the maths themselves. Y'know, matrix multiplication and stuff.

and how do you think it was done BEFORE opengl?

PS even in DOS days these weren't squares...
PPS Black Book of Graphic Programming is your friend, go google

Isometric =/= 3D

Isometric just looks 3D, but it's pretty much 2D. So it can be done "by hand". But I believe you can also use Tiled and Advaced Tiled Loader. I also think I saw an isometric engine in the libraries section of the wiki.

For actual 3D, there's some guys who have been doing raycasting in the forum, look for it. Also, Stabyourself's Ortho Robot uses some very simple 3D.

Look at this demo (use arrow keys).
Should get you started.
Best.
